Dear ICANN members,

The adult community don't want to be obligated in registering their adult site 
with .XXX

.XXX will not protect against child pornography as ICM/IFFOR says, that is what 
law enforcement can do, and the recent issues with registrars shutting down 
domains due to lack of 2257 documentation has demonstrated that registrars can 
have influence to the process.

If there is Child Porn on a website, it would seem a report to the registar to 
have them look at the site and confirm such content, would make it easy for 
them to shut it down.

While the pedofiles are sick, they are not stupid. They won't register a .XXX 
name, they will use .COM

If you refer to Appendix S, part 8 of ICM's Revised Proposed Agreement, the 
first couple entries that pertain to protecting against child pornography are 
seriously flawed by the obvious observation above.

If .XXX was such a desired TLD like .mobi and .travel, etc.. but the adult 
online industry has clearly demonstrated that it does not want to be taxed or 
ruled over by a .XXX TLD.
